It’s so delicious and so convenient —all squeezed and ready to serve.” Because Welch’s is pure fruit juice, it is healthful. Ir gives you the valuable laxative properties, mineral salts, vitamins that you ex- pect of a fresh fruit. It is so pure and rich in delicious Concord grape flavor that you can serve it straight, blended or diluted. Recipes are on every label.

WELCH’S Once you've tasted Welch’s no other grape juice will do LIFE more than fifty years in trying to help deliver men and their families from the control and effects of the cursed appetite which alcohol in almost any form creates but never satisfies, I can- not look with equanimity upon the at- tempts to discredit aad ridicule the beneficent effects of Prohibition. In spite of the selfish, greedy efforts of the bootleggers and their allies in so- called high society to break down the good results of the Eighteenth Amendment, I can see every day of my business life in my home town and in and around Boston such marked im- provement over conditions which pre- vailed before the passage of this Amendment, that it seems almost in- conceivable that the men who furnish the articles and cartoons ridiculing Prohibition can find publishers willing to print or a public ready to be en- tertained by them. I cannot help the feeling that these authors are themselves controlled by their craving for alcoholic stimulant and often write or draw pictures when under the influence of its overindul- gence.

GENTLEMEN: The other day I saw in a sketch of Mr. Booth Tarkington that Lire had returned thirty-one of his pen and ink sketches which had convinced him to turn to novel writing—hence his ulti- mate success. For fifteen years I have tried your patience—once you even returned a skit which, in the excitement of the moment, I had failed to mail out with the customary stamped envelope. I think that the patience of Edison, Marconi, and myself is dwarfed in comparison with your own. So the other day I bought a potato warehouse—they tell me there is a future in potatoes and I only hope to do as well in that line as did Mr. Tarkington when he quit sending pen sketches to Lire and started writing the Great American Novel. With all best wishes and hoping you all wish me the best of success in my new potato business, I am, Sincerely, Artuur R. Oris Granp Rapips, Minn.
